In an amber glass dropper bottle, combine the rosehip oil and the rosemary essential oil. As we use this hair oil regularly, I recommend a 1 % dilution (60ml - 18 drops).
Once you’ve added the oils, screw the lid on and give the bottle a good shake. The oil is now ready to be used in your hair care routine.
How to Make - Method 2 - Maceration
You’ll need a clean jar that’s big enough to fit the oil and 3-4 twigs (about 100 ml). Put the rosemary sprigs into the jar and pour the rosehip oil over them, making sure they are completely covered. Screw on the lid and store in a dark place for 2 weeks.
Then take out the sprigs. To increase the potency of the oil, add a couple more sprigs to the amber glass bottle in which you want to store the hair oil ultimately. Just leave enough room for the dropper. You don’t necessarily need to take out the herb but you can after 2 weeks if it’s in the way!
How to Use
For hair loss, boost in hair growth and improving scalp health, scalp treatments will be your best method. Simply apply a small amount of oil to your scalp.
Massage the scalp for at least 5 minutes in a circular motion to increase blood circulation. If you also want to address dry hair, you can apply the oil to your dry strands as well. Cover your head with a shower cap. This will contain the heat that is emanating from your head which improves the absorption of the oils!
Leave the oil in for 30 minutes up to 1 hour. Wash your hair as usual.
Notes
How often to use: You can use the oil as often as you wash your hair. But don’t feel like you have to use it that often. It’s enough to apply it 1-2 a week!
